real happiness is not in wealth or lineage.
real happiness and inner peace can be found in submitting the commands of the creator and sustainer of this world.
The one who turns away from Quran will have a life of hardship in this world.
If you have any question ' I'm ready .

I have a couple of questions. :D

1. What's the difference between real happiness and inner peace. Doesn't one imply the other?
2. To whom do we submit (i.e. give) the commands?

3. What's your objective in translating the words of the 'Quran'?

Could you please give some further explanations for "The one who turns away from Quran will have a life of hardship in this world."

It would be very nice of you.

This is an English language forum, however, and not meant for the propegation of religion, which is a subject that can be controversial.

Ok dear Casiopeay
1) One ma imply the other.I'm with you.
2) You have to submit to the creator. ( Allah ).
3) The traslation of the holy Quran is to know how to worship Allah to follow his command.

Dear henry
I don't know a famous man to tell you about but I personally I know a rich man was spending more than 2000 thosand dollar daily. Of course he was searching for happiness but he couldn't.After he turned back to Allah he felt happy.
Dear tdol
I'm sorry but because I want you to be happy.

---------------------
Happiness is in the good life mentioned in this verse, that even the rich disbelievers cannot find, despite the money they have. That is why we are not surprise when we know that many among them committed suicide.
To reach true happiness, we need to know what is the purpose of our life, how to reach success in the hereafter, and to fulfill the requirements of reaching this success by following the commands of God and His true religion.
We know much about Mars, Earth, moon, stars, and galaxies, thanks to the century of knowledge. But how much we know about our eternal life after death and how to reach success in the hereafter? People need to eat every day to supply their bodies with energy and to keep themselves healthy. If they stop eating for a period of time, diseases will sneak up upon them and overtake them, and perhaps even kill them. Similarly, people also need food of another kind, food for the spirit and heart. It is unfortunate that while people are careful never to forget to feed their bodies, they do not show the same concern for the health of their souls and hearts. The heart needs food as the body does. The diseases of the body and the debilitating effects they have are not more dangerous than the diseases of the heart and soul

Does it mean that you will assume a dictatorial action against all political or religious discussions/posts? :roll: :roll:

er... even now, I would like to take the risk of being the 1st 'glorious' sacrificer:)oops: :oops: ) to suggest that if 'political' or religious discussions do not break any laws of the forum or including any personal insulting, then they should be permited.

Apparently, we can see Cooly has some different opinion with you and me, but we also can see he state his opinion in a very polite and restrained way, then, his words or anydiscussions don't beyond the rules should be passed.

Btw, I am an pure atheist, I disbelieve any existense of any god, But this doesn't prevent me from showing my respect to the one who has her/his belief and pursue it in her/his whole life, whatever she/he is a christian or a Muslim.

Well, We know this is an English learning forum and we should focus on Language, But you know, Language is always the tool to convey ideas, and mankind's ideas are always various, then we learn other ppl' s language to have a free communication and to know each other better. Perhaps the misunderstanding or the conflicts will be much less provided that we can have a good communication.

I mean, We do not encourage any political or religious debate, But we can never avoid them and we should not afraid of them.
...

And I want to tell all members here, The purpose of our English learning is not intend to quarrel, but to communicate!

:evil: :evil:

No, that means this is a forum for discussing the English language, not politics or religion.

Couldn't it be better not to have a touch in these fields as they are always controversial?

It's difficult to strike a balance, but we know that things can get rapidly out of hand when certain subjects are discussed. This thread has no language content at all- it is simply designed for proselytizing and, as such, had already been criticised. The trouble with these things is that they start small and then suddenly erupt into flaming and bad feeling. We have had the problem before. If such issues come up in the course of a discussion that is one thing, but this thread is another. The creator of the thread also feels that they are not beholden to the rules of the forum, which is a cause for concern. ;-)
